    Hello StephanieSmi779​,

    Sorry to hear about the trouble with the corrupt assets!

    I appreciate the troubleshooting you've already done. You did a great job recovering those assets, and the steps you applied align with the recommendations in our knowledge base article below:

     

    File corruption is unpredictable, and there's no straightforward way to determine what causes it. Common causes are environmental (disk errors, power outages, improper shutdowns), viruses, failed Windows updates, and even file size (i.e., very large files have a higher risk of corruption). Consider these preventative measures to protect your project files and assets.

    If the problem happens again, let me know, and I'd be more than happy to assist you further. You can also connect with us privately in a support case if you want more targeted help.
